Nice review! It is a stunning pen. The ink window color and cherry swirl(?)ebonite is very cool! That step down might make it very uncomfortable for many though.

Thanks!

KI, as usual great photos on your site. The pen is an odd shape; seemingly chunky yet streamlined.
The colours and swirls are really eye grabbing and the ink window in some of the photos looks like a highly polished copper.
The swirls are interesting in that the appear to have a granular particulate almost digitised look to them. It seems to be one of those pen you will spend a lot of time just looking at.

How are you finding the EF nib there seems to have a slight bit of flex in your s-shaped things at the bottom of the review.

Absolute Brown is a nice colour ink too.

Great review!

Nice pictures as well. Looks really really nice. I love the Ebonite! Untill I saw the Anderson group buy I did not know he even made pens with it!

How do you like it being clipless? I dont have any pens that are clipless and always wondered how it was on a daily basis. Do you notice it rolling around your desk... where do you put it when you go out with it?

Thanks again for sharing the review of this beautiful pen!

Very nice review! That pen looks familier somehow... :) I'm glad you are enjoying the pen! I've since ordered one in deep-red/black ebonite and it leans more towards the red side of things like I was hoping. Like your pen it has an EF nib on it that is very smooth. The nib did not have any work done to it, at least none that wasn't done by Brian before he shipped it out. I think he tests and tunes all his nibs on the Signiture line pens prior to shipping out. Thanks for another great pen review!

Thanks Bogon. I know I still have room for improvement in my photos. :)

I, in fact, sometimes catch myself being mesmerized by the pen.

Thank you earthdawn. This is my third ebonite pen and two of them are Edison pens. Those two are the better of the three. Brian just has a way of polishing the ebonite that looks awesome.

This is my first clip-less pen. I received a leather pouch with it but I use my pen portfolio to store it. I find that I tend to leave it at my desk, even at work because I do not feel secure in having it in my pocket. I am afraid I am going to damage it or lose it. I have a couple of pen stands to keep it from rolling around and the pen pouch. I think I may start using the pouch more.

Thank you inky, this would not have been possible without your help. :)
